Wait! Is science… interesting?!?!

🤯🤯🤯

Maybe I’m twelve, but “WATNEY: Look! A pair of boobs! -> (.Y.)” is the hardest I’ve laughed at a book in a long time.

Holy shit that’s a fuck-ton of science. Awesome.

Only got a bit in because I quickly became distracted by Special Agent Gary Callahan’s fight for his life and the Season Finales of Shrinking, High Potentjal and Best Medicine. Oops.

It’s really good so far, though, even though the horror has yet to hit.

The opening of this book very well may be one of the most stunning pieces of writing I’ve ever read. I probably read it half a dozen times before continuing on.

I wasn’t kidding when I said I’d be diving right into this one. Super uneasy mood so far. Not as unsettling or creepy as The Caretaker was at this point, but super uneasy.

The overall atmosphere is… ::shivers:: and the “VHS” chapter freaked me the f*ck out. So yeah, I’m SUPER excited to see what this has lurking in its shadows.

The Lunch Break feels like an outtake. A side quest of sorts in a larger narrative. But it’s likable and set in the world of filmmaking and written cinematically, so I enjoyed it quite a bit.

True Story was fun. Two wise guys telling stories over breakfast. A really entertaining look into mafia myth-building, both in terms of events and people.

The North Wing is okay. A good exploration of the stupid things we do for family. I’m personally not going that far for a cousin, but to each their own.

Only one story again… The Sunday List is a pretty damn great coming-of-age story about the lessons we learn from those we unwillingly meet in our lives.
